Great budget accommodation
Basic accommodation. We stayed in a double private. Tv has no English channels, only 1 bathroom/shower for men and one for women, the shower it great with hot water, lots of space and with different pressure-settings. Around the corner from the night market, free buss that takes you around the city and the subway. Helpful staff!!

Good enough
Location is good. 1km to the beach and many shops arond there. About room, airconditioner doesnt work so much. They should have fan to solve this problem. Wifi is limited only at front, but it was great speed. Food at this hostel was cheaper than the outside restaurant and was good taste, though they serve so late. And we can rental bike with 5$ per day In total, it was good enough.

Great value for a low price
I do not have any complaints- our stay went well. Additionally I would like to praise the staff as we went to the wrong branch of the hostel but we was offered the room to stay there. Also we got a few helpful tips and warm welcoming attitude from both staff members! (by the way- one bad thing- the toilets are so small that you can hardly sit on it :))

Sell my room booked to other pp. cause paid more!
I want to aware other travelers about how unprofessional this hotel is. I booked in the nice Chinatown submarine and said that will be a late check in for my flight. I arrived there at 10 p.m. and the have already sold my room to other person who paid higher rate. What? So they sent me to other submarine hostel, close by, in central market. A horrible place, nothing in common with the one I booked, and they charged me same rate.the building is terrible dirty, toilets tiny and next to the desk of reception with a plastic curtain as a door. I think that they promote submarine chinatown in the websites because is nicer and newer, and once they filled it they don't aware guest they just wait to you be there to tell you they are over booked but "don't worry we have another hostel just few streets from here". Very disappointed. I staid that night and run away.

Great Location Very Clean GH
My fiancé and I stayed for 4 nights when we arrived in KL. First of all loved the location, right next to the Chinatown market, the central market, and the pasar seni train station. This was convenient for getting around everywhere. The hotel itself is very clean and comfortable. Staff extremely friendly. Perfect for budget travelers who want a good price. Only downside was there was only one bathroom and one shower for makes and one for females so sometimes had to wait to shower or use toilet. Other than that great accommodation. Will stay again on my next visit

南京虫がいます。
従業員の方々の対応は丁寧でした。しかし部屋はゴミが多くベットの下は埃だらけです。そして夜寝ていると枕元を歩く虫の姿が。まさかと思いネットで調べると、様々なサイトを見ましたが南京虫でした。 翌朝よくよく調べると壁についているカードの隙間等にたくさんの南京虫が隠れていました。また壁には南京虫を潰したと思われる赤い跡や虫の死骸が無数にあります。

Goed verblijf
De dorm is prima, niet heel groot maar comfortabel genoeg. In het weekend is er best veel lawaai en heb je oordopjes nodig om te slapen. Badkamer voorzieningen zijn opzich ook prima. Locatie is heel goed. Midden in China town en een paar minuten lopen van de flea market en Central market. Toeristisch maar alles lekker dichtbij. Ben hier al meerdere malen geweest, mede dankzij het behulpzame personeel.
